Spanish term or phrase:trascavo

Hi Proz,
The term trascavo - is that a mechanical shovel? They use it (in this translation) to move coal. Any help appreciated.

Explanation:a machine intended for both excavating and moving the material dug to dump it away from the place from which it was dug or into a truck. You may also come across with trescavito, trascavito etc depending on the Spanish speaking country involved. Hope this helps. Good luck!
